Identifying Digital Evidence from Android Devices via Static and Dynamic Analysis

Type: Webinar
Research Area: Digital

This CSAFE Center Wide webinar was presented on June 25, 2019 by Dr. Yong Guan, CSAFE researcher at Iowa State University.

Presentation Description:

The over 50 app stores across the world provides mobile phone users with access to 8 million apps, each with the potential to house important forensic evidence. It is not possible for digital forensic practitioners to develop sufficient expert knowledge about every single app on the market. As a result, this often prevents timely and reliable discovery of forensic evidence, leading to backlogs in most crime laboratories. Researchers will discuss EviHunter, a new forensic Android app analysis toolset, and with it, build the likely largest Android App Forensic Evidence Database, to assist crime investigators to solve these issues.
